Oil Refineries An Idea For Closed Bases – White House

U.S. President George W. Bush would like energy companies and U.S. communities facing military base closings to consider the sites for new oil refineries, White House spokesman Scott McClellan said answering a question at a regular press briefing Friday.

“The president did propose that as an option for military bases that have been closed, and he thinks that that could be a good use for some of the bases that have already been closed,” McClellan said.
